Every out of the home steaming device I have from Slingbox,Audiotap ,Vulkano,VNC works just fine except the TIvo ooh.

Ive done plenty of troubleshooting and I know it's not my network

I have 110/22 mbps speeds at my house as well .The private ooh network I use has 20/5 . I still cannot get even close to the video quality
of this guy's hotel wifi.

Hardwired Roamio so its not a wifi issue.

I also stated that it could be your ISP or every stop along the way on the internet. I have seen cases where multiple applications all work fine and one does not because of the ports/settings that it relies on where the others do not. Don't rule out your network unless you are sure that all of those devices are using the same transport parameters, the same security settings and the same ports.

I've been watching quite a few things and for me it's aboutt he same as my old Slingbox. Now to be fair my Slingbox was an older one that was SD only, maybe they've gitten better with the newer HD ones. But for me the picture is fine for my tiny little iPad screen given that my upload speed at home is only 3-4Mbps. Also I ran a speed test and even though the hotel login page says it's capped at 1Mbps it's actually getting about 30Mbps. So I think the only reason I'm not getting full HD is because of my upload limitations on my home network side. But even though I'm only getting 5 out of 7 bars in the TiVo app it looks fine to me. It's obviously not full resolution HD, but it's more then watchable.

Yeah the Tivo is Sd quality or worse . The new
Sling boxes have HD quality . I had an older Slingbox and all it did was buffer , poor pic,
My 350 is amazing .

Agreed, a while back I spent months troubleshooting a customer who claimed the website we were developing was slow, they insisted it was our fault, even though the customer was the only one screaming about it.

We ended up sending a network engineer out there, turns out it was a their ISP fiddling with the TCP window sizes and retries as a way to limit the bandwidth the customer was using. Once the issue was escalated to the ISP and customer actually started getting what they were paying for the problem went away.

I downloaded one show, at Best, to compare. It was clearer, but not by a lot especially when sitting the iPad on my knees and watching from 1-2' away. The Stream was plenty watchable to me.

I never really had a problem with the SlingBox quality either. My biggest complaint about it was the control lag and the fact that they charged $30 for the app and you needed a different version, at $30/ea for every type of device.

Yes the lag with Slingbox is VERY annoying, especially when trying skip commercials.
If you use a PC/laptop the Sling web client is free (and you can even using a hack to use web browser on Linux box as a client). The iOS/Android Sling clients are now $15.

One can workaround the Sling lag problem by recording Sling output and then playing that back after waiting a while, but it's inconvenient to have to use web client to start playback of a show you want to watch, then switch over to kmttg and start a recording of the Sling output, then wait a while before you can start watching. The Stream is a lot more convenient OOH even though the picture quality can be pretty bad at times.

With Sling web client recently I keep getting audio/video sync issues after a while for which I have to use trick play every few minutes to correct which is very annoying. The Stream has also been annoying lately freezing in last 2 minutes of show and not playing beyond that so that I end up missing the end of the show and having to use Sling to finish watching.

So to me I'm not really that happy with either Stream or Sling solutions, but it's good to have option to switch between them.

This would be my only complaint with my Slingbox 350 .The controls are slow,
delayed.

I really cant figure out why my Tivo ooh streaming looks so bad when my current speedtest in my house in 170/23 mbps.

The Slingbox is definitely streaming in HD.Tivo looks like SD at best.

I just discovered that my cable company only sets the CCI byte on Sho and HBO, and on HBO they only set it on the West Coast feed. The East coast one is free. Also most/all of the secondary channels for both HBO and Sho are unprotected. So I can record from them and download/stream anything to my iPad or PC.
